>*Changing paste >EricD: Yes we are considering that as a point. Because I believe the paste we are using are in syringe packaged and designed for dispensing. We are using an Indium SMQ75 paste and current application naturally is stencil printing.

Electra Wave Solder Machine

1. Do you have the necessary equipment to take on such a task and 2. Why? My only guess is that you are looking to find the probability or likelihood of a particular observation and / or a "confidence" score on your other equipment. This is just a

Why measure O2 ppm level in N2 environment

Electronics Forum | Wed Mar 05 11:45:04 EST 2003 | msivigny

Hello Yngwie, When we look at the technical benefits of using N2, you'll find that your customer is trying to get a better product. Now as we discuss just a few of the reasons to use N2, when O2 is present in the heating atmosphere it carries oxides

HI Andrea- to answer Q: 1) Stencils can be order through various vendors that manufacture stencils. You would need to have CAD data for the Stencil company to make them. You design engineer should have the CAD info. Also, the stencil design company c

Water Soluble for No Clean BGA Balls

Electronics Forum | Tue Apr 13 20:57:14 EDT 2004 | Mike Konrad

Hey Dreamy, Dave is correct. If you attempt to clean your water soluble (OA) flux with water only, you will turn the no-clean flux white. No inspector or end-user will accept this. If a proper cleaning system is not available to you, then I would

Running with sn100c in my solder pot!

Electronics Forum | Fri Jun 09 11:55:34 EDT 2006 | jbrower

Howdy Amol, As far as I can see, there aren't too many pitfalls with SN100C. Just make sure to keep all of your alloys seperated. The issues that I am working out right now is the profiles with our wave pallets and some of our larger components. We

Yield on 0402 SMT Printed Circuit Board Assemblies

Electronics Forum | Wed Jan 10 20:06:43 EST 2007 | SSS

I've been assembling thousands of boards for dozens of customers over the past 5 years with 0402 chip components. 85% can happen very easily even with newer equipment. Defect challanges with 0402 packages is almost always tombstoning. Capacitors abou

Wave Soldering Process Restrictions

Electronics Forum | Wed Feb 21 08:48:37 EST 2007 | rgduval

Ideally? Never. You risk component break down by re-running the board over the wave machine. In a perfect world, your wave operator would make adjustments after one run, and you'd run another panel over the wave to judge the effectiveness of the a
